    TV

    Keyser's war stories - I love 'em all As I remember it, TV licence detection used to strike the fear of death into people in the 70's and 80's. iPlayer shot the BBC in the foot though
  2. Subjective, but personally I think 350Z Nismo V2 is the sweet spot of 350/370. Nismo 370Z is very very nice though
  3. Thats because they found them all in a lake. Cool! I didn't know that I hope RB managed to apply a bit of metal polish and put them back where they belong. Travesty of stealing their trophies Edit: Ahh bummer - googled - significantly damaged 20 out of 60 stolen, were in the lake..
  4. I haven't seen the Red Bull trophies turn up on eBay yet...
  5. Silly question... how about CF engine covers (VQ35DE) ? * or did you stop selling them? ..or did I imagine that you started selling them but didn't actually - can't find them on the site * not that I wish to further 'copy' Granville or anything..
  6. Too soon, but after he's pm'd Alex and his problem has been sorted, perhaps he can be ATTAK Z'd ...eh?
  7. Can't say re HR - sorry. Mine is JDM/DE too which definitely take the small size of cap. Seems to work well as a shiny under bonnet temp gauge (and give 1.3 bar). It hasn't leaked yet - but I did at one point have a slight VQ airlock after chaning coolant which seemed harder to shift (due to the less expansion I suppose) than with a standard cap on. I swapped between them for a while until everything settled down by burping.
  8. Supercharged 350Z (JDM Fairlady version) Must say, I do like red Zeds ^^ - I tried to buy a red one before I bought my silver in 2011 - but the owner drove it into his garage door and took it off the market. Silver is good though.. definitely a fast colour
  9. As it happens, I've since splurged on that very smaller Mishi one to fit to my intake side. This gives me existing strong reciprocating suction on the throttle near-closed side (pcv, original Mishi can with extra one way valve) for sitting in traffic and on the high flow rate side, cleaned intake suction with the new can on high load / boost. Twin can. When I get to fitting it, I'll add to my thread of course. Possibly getting a bit overkill, but cans seem to work pretty well and in the scheme of things, not many cost units in terms of tanks of fuel. Clean air good. Oil in cans good
  10. Nahh - taking it to a garage would remove half the fun and interest from it - only done as a very last resort. You have many pleasant DIY jobs left (as do I)
  11. Good progress Very interesting watching a diff extraction. Maybe you will get around to changing that stage 4 paddle clutch on axle stands by yourself then (#138).. http://www.350z-uk.c...20#entry1365673
  12. Great race I thought Exciting in-car video action, sublime driving by Vettel, tight racing, sense of atmospheric heat haze and mega brake dust and of course Lewis back to being a stroppy little sh1te Good highlights entertainment on a wet and windy afternoon
  13. ...and not just the pressure washer either. I thought you copied me on the supercharger
  14. I've got what he's got ^^ I copied
  15. My wife, who is an relatively feminine Aussie from Brisbane, thinks that the ute is owned by a country-GIRL... :scare: Roughty-toughty or what?
  16. Cripes - I just read this observation by the lovely Bev Turner (Cracknell's better half, she was sooo hot in the days of F1 reporting in the Murray Walker era ) http://www.telegraph...over-steak.html I hope Jezzer gets it all back on an even keel (I'm in the fan camp BTW)
  17. Very nice Andy. Those Arduino Nanos are great pieces of kit - a good dose of capability in such a small form factor
